Arts Online: Thirsty Pixels

Thanks to Jillian York‘s message on Facebook today, I learn about a new site Thirsty Pixels by Emily Henochowicz. This is what Jillian said on Facebook:

21 year-old Emily Henochowitz was shot in the face on Monday by Israeli soldiers at Qalandiya checkpoint with a teargas canister. She lost an eye. Please check out her stunning artwork on her website.

Contemporary artworks are always more attractive to me. With the power of internet, we can now receive information about exhibitions around the world, such as via New Emissary blog by Ulara Nakagawa. We don’t get to visit them physically, however. Fortunately, many people nowadays display their artworks online, so we get to visit virtual galleries.
